Your description of Brokaw is funny: "In terms of US my favorite is Tom Brokaw, who talks like a dog barking, his whole body is lifted half an inch on most explosive consonants." Actually, I always thought that with his head lifted he looked rather like a dog sniffing a scent in the air. I didn't know you in Finland had the pleasure of him broadcasting here in the U.S.. I tend to ignore him and watch our non-profit PBS news--the Lehrer News Hour, formerly the MacNeill Lehrer Report. Perhaps the "not one word" was an exaggeration. Other U.S. immigrants also gravitated toward areas of the U.S. that were reminiscent physically of their home country. The English and Welsh came to southern Wisconsin, the Russians to the great plains states, and the Scottish to the Appalachian Mountains. I've even seen nineteenth century photographs of Russian men on the American frontier using teams of women in harnesses plowing the prairie when they were too poor to afford horses. French explorer were the first European settlers where I live, but where I live is nothing like France.
